Everyone always freaks out when a new version, model. whathaveya comes out. Just remember that the reasons you bought your whatever it is are still as valid today as they were 3 mos ago.
Yes, I mentioned that my dealer had been to a big Kubota sales meeting and he told me there were changes coming in the small tractor lineup. Yep, there will be changes to existing machines and possibly some new machines. The consumer segment is a growing market. Kubota created this niche. Yep, Kubota, not JD. JD pretended it did not exist unitl they had to respond. They finally came out with the rebadged Yanamar unit--the 2210. Now, y'all didn't actually expect Kubota to allow JD to one up them in the market they identified did ya? Change is inevitable. Guess what, about a year or so from now you can expect similar changes in the JD, Cub Cadet, MF small tractor lineups. This is a rapidly evolving market so we will see various concepts tried by all the companies till things finally settle down and stabilize. J
